Eee! I just bought an apricot Hujoo Suve. x3 She's getting shipped out today, so hopefully she'll reach me by early next week! I'm still thinking of a name for her...I'm caught between a drag name and a food name.

I decided to finally make the entire male cast of 'La Corda d'Oro' (12 guys) in SD sized portrait dolls!!! We had 3 of 12 already (You might know 2 of them, Satoshi & Jun, from our 'Hey! Hey! Hey! doll reenactments) so I just said, 'What the heck! Let's go for it!' since we just adore Corda and all the cast (they hold cast concert events every couple of years and other events, too).

So, on Jan 1 or so, I wrote up the heights of each of the 12 (would you believe they're practically in sets of 3 matching similar heights?! I.E. I need 3x 60cm; 3x 62cm; 3x 65cm; and 3x 70cm ranges!) and started my 'search' to find their perfect head sculpts and corresponding size bodies!

The ones in 'italics' below are the 3 we already have and are finished completely, including wardrobes. The rest are still in the 'I have your body and head sitting in a box in my closet, but haven't had a chance to customize you in any way whatsoever yet.'

Taniyama Kisho 5'10" - Dollzone Yuu head & Dollzone 65cm body
Ito Kentaro 5'5" - Impldoll Bosco head & Mirodoll 60cm body
Fukuyama Jun 5'7" - AoD Mo Lan head & AoD Vers 1 62cm body
Morita Masakazu 5'6" - Dragondoll Cheng head & Domuya 61cm body
Kishio Daisuke 5'6" - DollnDoll Nocturne head & DollFamily 60cm body
Miyano Mamoru 6'2" - Angelsdoll Shakan head & Angelsdoll Slim Vers 2 72cm body
Hino Satoshi 5'7" - AoD Yuki head & AoD Vers 2 62cm body
Maeno Tomoaki 5'10" - Domuya Taka head & Island Doll 65cm body
Konishi Katsuyuki 6'0" - Elfdoll Mir head & Fantasydoll 69cm body
Yasumura Makoto 5'7" - Mirodoll #06 head & Kizdolls 63cm body
Ishikawa Hideo 6'1" - Fantasydoll Lionel head & Angelsdoll Vers 1 Slim 72cm body
Uchida Yuuya - 5'9" - Angelsdoll Ieseul head & Impldoll 64cm body

I've managed to purchase most of the bodies and heads already!!!! I haven't had time to do faceups or anything yet on the ones that have arrived already, but it's been even fun choosing out heads that have the basic sculpt/features of the guy in question. ^^

I just need 3 more heads (Impldoll Bosco, Dragondoll Cheng, and Fantasydoll Lionel) and 2 more bodies (Fantasydoll 69cm, Kizdolls 63cm!!!)

So now that we're getting so close, I'm starting to get super excited about this project!!!!!

I am now not only waiting for my Asleep Eidolon Blueberry to arrive from the factory and my Only-Doll RuoDie from Mint on Card, but I'm now also waiting for a second hand Iplehouse JID Ryan from the DoA marketplace. Holy bazookas he's hot. So exciting!!! Oh, I'm also waiting for a new head for my Lati Blue-body (I'll keep the Cara head as a practice head for faceups).

My doll wishlist used to be quite long, but I have decided that my doll family will be complete once I receive the dolls I am waiting for at the moment :). And yes, I know that sounds silly in this hobby because there will always be new temptations, but I am fairly certain that I won't feel the need to buy any new dolls after this :).

-edit- Isn't he pretty? Even my boyfriend thinks he's handsome... LOL!

Not silly! My doll wish list has gotten much smaller to the point where once floating head gets his body, I don't think I'll really want more dolls at least for a long time. I hope all your new dolliehs come quickly!

I'm only pacing a lot for Friday to get here so I can finally order Layna and Vixie's head. Do you have an ETA on your.. boy Eveline?
A hobby isn't supposed to leave you wistful, regretful and vaguely disappointed. BJD collecting is as customizable as the dolls themselves. Do whatever pleases you the most, because otherwise, why do it at all? All for the 'Gram Bitches love the 'Gram.

My ".. boy"? Haha! He was shipped yesterday but oddly enough the seller didn't get a tracking number. I only have a customs tracking number which isn't supposed to be used for tracking, lol. So his arrival will be a big surprise (and I'll have to pick him up the day after because I will not know how much money to have at home to pay for the customs fee... -_-)

Am I allowed in here while I wait for an action figure? They're basically dolls, right?
If not, too bad cause I'm already here! Mwa-ha-ha-ha-ha! :twisted:


Anyways, I just placed an order for a 2nd generation Yotsuba Revoltech action figure. She's super-duper cute and I've been wanting her since before Christmas. Shipping is 3-5 days, so there is a possibility that I may have her by the weekend!

*crosses fingers but doesn't get hopes too high*
